Lyrics
Well she's not much for talking these days
Can cut through me with her blue-eyed gaze
I tried to save her time and time again
She hides behind an armor of inch-thick skin
So I said
Put on your black dress, honey
Dance around in the cobblestone streets
Try not to feel it, honey
The weight of the world can wait you'll see
You can be anything
If you put on that black dress
She's up and five and on her way in
Doesn't like the daily grind but she does it again
Always dreamt of Pensacola and its warm air
Staring at the city lights wihtout a care
I still said
Put on your black dress, honey
Dance around in the cobblestone streets
Try not to feel it, honey
The weight of the world can wait you'll see
You can be anything
If you put on that black dress
One day I think I got through
She put in her two weeks, cut ties with the boots
Bought a one-way ticket straight outta this town
She wrote me a letter sayin things got better
It said
I found my black dress, honey
I danced around in the cobblestone streets
Now I don't feel it, honey
The weight of the world doesn't wait for me
I can be anything
Now that I've got my black dress
